Winter photos

Took some snowy winter photos.

First up, the dog. You know, the one that I called the money pit in my previous entry. As you can see, he is now possessed and stubborn and did NOT want to leave the freezing cold snow to go inside, despite having a nice large patch of exposed skin on his backside. He's a hardy little fella.




What I get to see on my commute every day. The pigeons love to gather on this particular poll. Wish I'd caught it with the red lights as then it looks sorta eerie...


A wintery sunset last week. Just gorgeous colors.



A cotton candy tree. This is when the snow is so light and fluffy it just clings and looks like white blossoms. So pretty. Alas, it'll all be gone by the morning.


The wintery road this morning.


My favorite shot, taken this morning on the way to work. I just love the sky, and this was a photo I just took haphazardly while driving, clicking point and shoot camera to the side. Turned out nice...

And last... a photo that means nothing to anyone but me...


My car's odometer turned 170,000 today! And no parts have fallen off yet (although the rear bumper has a lot of duct tape on it!).

Love your snow and wintery scenes, especially the sunset one. And your dog is so cute! Shelties can be such crotchety characters!

Need... hot... chocolate. I think your Shelty and mine are long lost twins :/ Only mine isn't stubborn, she's just lost her hearing.

All of our snow has melted the last few days. It's brown in this area of Montana, but I did just post some photos of where there is some winter here. Had to go 200 miles to find it....

Love the sunset pic. *sigh*

Awww! Snowy puppy! So cute! And I love the snowy trees. We sure haven't had much of that in Toronto this year. Weird. :\

Your pooch looks so lost and confused!

Snow *twitches* had enough of that stuff around here!! Pretty pics though. Snow does make for pretty pics. Although the shots of the road made a few hives want to break out on me. I hate driving in that slippery wet slush.

As for your odometer, I took a long way home and pulled to the side of the road when my Saturn hit 200,000 miles. I sent it to my Hubby's phone and he just texted me back to get myself home because dinner was ready.

Beautiful! And what is it with animals that like to cool their butts in the snow?

I have to ask, though: what is a cotton candy tree? Never heard of such a thing before!

What a lovely dog - worth every penny!

Funny how they get the best of private medicine when they need it, but us...we'll put up with a trip to the pharmacy!

Hope he feels better soon

Thanks. Yeah, he can be very stubborn when he wants to be.

Hee. Hmm, hot chocolate. sounds good.

[identity profile] wraithfodder.livejournal.com 2010-02-20 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks. We have more snow coming next week. Seems to be a weekly thing.

I think all your snow is down south here! ;)

[identity profile] wraithfodder.livejournal.com 2010-02-20 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
thanks! 237,000?? Wow!!

[identity profile] wraithfodder.livejournal.com 2010-02-20 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
Nah, he's just thinking 'she's going to bring me INSIDE and I want to stay out and eat snow.' ;)

I can hope my car makes 200K. depends on the darned rust.

[identity profile] wraithfodder.livejournal.com 2010-02-20 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
You're welcome :)

[identity profile] wraithfodder.livejournal.com 2010-02-20 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
Oh yes, he's got a TON of fur. like a woolly mammoth!

I need to put up a video of him. He is adorable.

[identity profile] wraithfodder.livejournal.com 2010-02-20 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
He's doing fine. Tolerating his antibiotics well and well, sleeping and being pampered. blast. I want to trade places!

Your Sheltie is so beautiful. I had one for 15 years. We bred them and I was the very first person ever to hold her and at 15 she died in my arms. I miss my baby Mistie Moo so much.

[identity profile] wraithfodder.livejournal.com 2010-02-24 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, they're lovely dogs. We had one before - he died of cancer. Sigh. I hope this one goes quietly and not in pain when it's his time.
